I Love How Aang Can Go From This

I love how Aang can go from this

to this

to this

honestly as a proshipper i'm sick of writing essays on why i enjoy complex media. i could teach antis about critical thinking and depiction not equaling condoning all day and they still wouldn't listen.

i'm just going to start saying i don't give a fuck.

kids could see this content and be affected? don't care. it's triggering to you and others? don't care. it's not what the original creator would have wanted? don't. care.

it's not my job to educate antis. i'm tired.

ON the subject of undernegotiated kink in fanfiction. i think we should talk more about how the concept of "not talking about it" is just as much wish fulfillment for some people as "in-depth, therapy-speak conversations where everyone is clear and understood" is for others

like yes, in reality the antidote to shame is open honest conversation with someone who will validate your feelings and wants blah blah blah but SOMETIMES what i want out of my fanfic is characters being understood without having to expose themselves in that way. SOMETIMES it's fun to not dismantle the shame and repression all the way and to instead treat that understanding-despite-not-being-clear as the fantasy
